nu tree

nu tree by filip leginj from serbia

designer's own words:

NU tree
The new urban tree has some of characteristics of a regular tree: It's self - sustainable and gives shade on warm summer days. But I gave it new uses uncharacteristic for a tree: It lights up streets, and provides water for city folks. Height of this tree is similar to normal street poles: 6m.
The best thing about NU tree is that it converts rain to drinking water through 3 filters. Rain is stored in tank that is in the ground (keeps water longer in no-rain times). Also it needs no energy because solar panels on top of this tree gather energy that is later used for lights and working of water filters.
